I never implied that he only has a wife because of his money. The implication was that someone of his net worth will likely never have trouble finding a partner. Say him and his wife divorced tomorrow, there’d be many women who’d line up to take her place.

And my point is, that his wife wasn't attracted to his net worth. In other words, he was able to attract his wife without his wealth. Other men who are average and even below average in looks actually meet, date, and marry women every day. No 'net worth' needed.

Get it?

Quite right. I went to high school with Melinda. She (her family) started out with way more money than Bill. She was also a really nice, genuine person and still seems to be.

Since I am far from ugly, I only have to cope with being single.

I'll get straight to the facts on how you cope with being ugly

1. Get plastic surgery
2. Keep working out in the gym
3. Keep working a good paying job
4. Travel the world and look for partners in foreign countries.

Some of the most fattest, baldest, and hideous men have beautiful women or wives all because the women are foreign.
